Spokeswoman

特指女性发言人;仍见于旧稿件或强调发言者性别时,新建风格指南多建议统一用 spokesperson。

  1. “The mayor’s spokeswoman outlined the new recycling rules.” (市长女发言人阐述了新的回收规定。)
  2. “She became the campaign’s chief spokeswoman in the final week.” (她在最后一周成为竞选团队的首席女发言人。)
  3. “The hospital spokeswoman said visiting hours would stay unchanged.” (医院女发言人表示探视时间维持不变。)

复合词 speak + woman;与 spokesman、spokesperson 同一族。

无典型词缀;复合构词:speak + s + woman。

性别化职位称谓在公共话语中逐步让位于中性词;引用历史报道时仍会见到 spokeswoman。

  • 固定搭配: “chief spokeswoman” (首席女发言人), “government spokeswoman” (政府女发言人)
  • 复数: spokeswomen

woman + who speaks for an organization → spokeswoman。

“The spokeswoman calmly corrected several inaccurate headlines live on air.” (女发言人在直播连线中冷静纠正了几条不实标题。)
